Answer

$I_d = 1.7\times 10^{-5}~A$

Work Step by Step

We can find the capacitance: $C = \frac{\epsilon_0~A}{d}$ $C = \frac{\epsilon_0~\pi~r^2}{d}$ $C = \frac{(8.854\times 10^{-12}~F/m)~(\pi)~(0.025~m)^2}{0.50\times 10^{-3}~m}$ $C = 3.477\times 10^{-11}~F$ We can find the displacement current: $I_d = C~(\frac{dv_c}{dt})$ $I_d = (3.477\times 10^{-11}~F)~(500,000~V/s)$ $I_d = 1.7\times 10^{-5}~A$
